The truth is clearly seen and understood. Today we see everywhere the consequences of rejecting what is clearly seen and understood. Judgment comes with a strong delusion..

Yes, and this delusion affects both the Christian and not.
"The god of this age has blinded the thoughts of the unbelieving." - 2 Cor 4.4
"So God will cause them to be greatly deceived, and they will believe these lies. Then they will be condemned for enjoying evil rather than believing the truth." - 2 Ths 2.11-12
"Don’t be fooled by what they say. For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God and the man of lawlessness is revealed—the one who brings destruction." 2 Ths. 2.3
This shows what incredible difficulties will face God's children in the final days. They will be surrounded by those who reject all semblance of truth. Basic honesty will be abandoned. Brotherly love will be a frozen relic.
Many seem to focus on what is happening in the world, but the way the world thinks must precede that.
